Since you can never have too many Koga Miyatas, when I saw an ad for a GranTourer frameset for about 40 euros, I didn't hesitate. It's a 66cm frame - finally a bike in my size! Paint is excellent shape, no rust internally or externally. FM-2 main triangle, HM-2 rear triangle and fork. This exact bike in this exact color is in the 1985 brochure, featuring 22mm tires. They had different ideas about touring in the 80s. I will build it up with 650b wheels so that I can fit 38mm tires.
